Joshua Kane exemplifies British craftsmanship in the 21st century. Vertically designed and produced, the independent fashion house proudly creates every ingredient required for the Joshua Kane suit, ensuring the utmost quality at every stage - from the fabric and lining to the buttons and trims.
Each Joshua Kane suit is cut from one of his unique fabrics, designed and woven in England and crafted by the most highly regarded mills with decades of tradition and heritage in British weaving. His distinctive use of colour, pattern and form takes historical inspiration and infuses it with his own eccentricity; creating the DNA of the Joshua Kane brand.
This traditional quality with a fashion forward aesthetic is paramount to the Joshua Kane brand ethos. In his commitment to telling alluring stories through tailoring and design, director in chief, Mr. Kane, personally oversees the complete design and realisation processes, putting his unique touch on every project, mixing his sartorial expertise with his provocative perspective on contemporary tailoring.

Joshua Kane established his own independent design house in 2014 working from his London apartment creating bespoke tailoring made by himself for friends and acquaintances.

Collaborating with musicians, dancers, performers, jewellers, hair & make-up artists to create an extraordinary vision for customers and fans alike to experience. Not your typical runway shows, Kane's presentations stand more as a theatrical performance than a catwalk display. Kane's shows are made with the intent to provide the ultimate escapism through storytelling, to provoke and to touch the audience taking them on a rousing journey through his tailored fantasies.
THE EXPERIENCE

In doing so, creating a bond so he may best advise and tailor each individual to their exact needs and requirements using his language of the suit to create an unforgettable experience.
